"Gonzak, really?"

"That guy, Zorro?"

Luffy asked while enjoying the hot soup.

·· ··Requesting 0 flowers ·····

“A pirate, a wanted criminal. I saw him on the wanted poster,” Zorro replied.

Zorro was originally a bounty hunter who frequently browsed pirate wanted posters, which he considered his livelihood.

"Oh—is he a remarkable person?"

"Back then, he was a big fish, worth eight million Berries. But, sir, what is the navy doing? They're not just letting these lawless pirates run rampant, are they?"

Zorro asked the old man.

"This is just a small island, not a significant port. In this age of rampant piracy, they have no time to spare for such a small island. Neither the navy nor anyone else will help us."

As the old man finished speaking, a look of despair appeared on his face.

Where are the villagers?

"Forced to serve pirates."

The old man looked out the window. Luffy and Zoro also looked out the window.

“Huh?” Angell was taken aback.

Zorro seems to have made a discovery.

There is a tower on a high ground a little further from the port.

The old man said, "This is the Tower of Demons."

Standing tens of meters tall, it is taller than any other building on the island. The sides of the tower are carved with fish scale patterns and a huge portrait.

“Dragon…” Luffy murmured to himself.

It was a painting of a three-headed dragon. Three enormous dragons soaring into the sky, coiling around the tower, giving off an ominous and terrifying feeling.

"What the hell are those guys up to...?"

The old man sighed.

"Ah!" A scream rang out.

Zorro suddenly called out softly.

Just then, a fireball shot out of the dragon's mouth.

boom!

A deafening roar followed. The small house teetered on the brink of collapse.

"Wow!" came a gasp.

Chapter 321: The Weakest Pirate?

boom!

Luffy was flustered and dropped the soup bowl he was holding on the ground.

Chirp chirp...

A deafening roar followed by an even more powerful shockwave that shook the entire island.

Chichi chichi chichi!

A massive shockwave nearly lifted the entire island up.

One by one, the items on the shelves rolled to the floor. Medaka didn't sit down; instead, she stood up, leaning against the wall. The ground shook violently, and she almost lost her balance.

Finally, the tremors subsided, and the house was a mess, as if it had just experienced a major earthquake.

"Soup... ah, delicious soup has spilled all over the floor!"

Luffy picked up the tattered plate marked "710" and was speechless. Soup was spilled all over the floor.

"That's the person who attacked us."

Zorro stared in disbelief as blue smoke billowed from the top of the "Demon Tower".

That's right! It was a huge cannonball that sank Luffy's small boat in the sea.

This "Demon Tower" is actually an enormous turret.

"You brat! They're the ones who sank our ship!"

Zoro's face was contorted with rage. A massive cannonball aimed at the coast opposite the island, the terrifying explosion shaking the entire island. Having been kissed by such a behemoth, Luffy and his crew's small boat was shattered into pieces. Ha, wrong! It's a miracle they survived.

"Which bastard is that?!"

Zorro said angrily.

"I've finished all the soup! Could I have another bowl?"

Luffy handed the old man a broken plate.

"There's no soup left... not even a piece of bread."

Mercaka exclaimed, "I understand." Luffy and Zoro were completely confused.

"Feel sorry……"

The old man did not speak again.

"You didn't give them all the food, did you...?"

Zoro was speechless. "Ah!" Luffy looked dejected. He wasn't moved to tears by the old man and Metalica's kindness, but rather by the fact that he would never get another bowl of soup.

"However, there is quite a lot of delicious food in the Tower of Demons."

Mercaka looked out the window mischievously.

"Could I have another bowl of soup there?"

Upon hearing this, Luffy's mouth watered and his eyes lit up.

"Eliminate Gonzak and the others, and enjoy the delicious food to your heart's content."

Eat whatever you want!

"Hmm," Luffy said.

"Hello, Luffy."

boom!

Before Zoro could finish speaking, Luffy had already opened the door.

"No, Medaka! Don't resist!"

The old man grabbed Medaka in a panic.

"Ugh! Why should we listen to pirates?"

"Disobeying their orders, the village..."

"This won't do! I can't take it anymore! I'm going to save Dad! I'll drive them all away and get Dad out!"

A resolute glint flashed in Medaka's eyes. The old man, trembling, grabbed her. Even Zorro was taken aback by Medaka's courage.

“Dad, he always… no matter what, he always came to save me! Such a good Mercaka! Now it’s my turn to save Dad!”

Medaka broke free from the old man's embrace and ran away.

"Yeah! Let's go have a good meal!"

Luffy leaped into the air and chased after Metalac. Oh, right, to be precise, he ran towards the food and Metalac.

"Oh dear..." Nami sighed.

Zorro also stood up.

"Although I don't want to cause trouble, it's better than doing nothing!"

He made up an excuse and chased after Luffy and Metallica, while Zoro ran wildly along the port's paths...

The world is like a sphere.

People already knew this in much earlier historical periods.

The world appears as a sphere primarily due to the shape of its landmasses. In this world, only one continent can truly be called a continent. Its shape is fascinating—straight and long, like a ribbon. Like the legendary serpent with its tail, it encircles the world, forming a continuous ring. Only a handful of people have ever traveled the world on this continent; if you consult history books, you'd likely only find a handful.

A ring-shaped continent divides the spherical world in two.

A winding red path, like a snake biting its own tail.

This is what is known as the "Red Line (Equator)".

Imagine a route that begins at a city located at the center of the equator and intersects the "Red Line" at a right angle. This is an adventure route called the "Grand Line," the route of the "Pirate King" Gol D. Roger.
